Chapter 3 Site preparation

Site preparation for all Passport congurations on page 37 contains a summary of general site preparation considerations. The following sections summarize considerations for specic hardware congurations: Site preparation for a oor-standing 5-slot Passport switch on page 38 Site preparation for a Passport cabinet on page 40 Site preparation for a seismic cabinet on page 45 Site preparation for 19-inch rack on page 49
For information about technical specications for all hardware, see 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description.
Site preparation for all Passport congurations

Before you decide where to install a Passport switch, consider the space and environmental requirements outlined in 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description. In addition, Where there is a risk of tampering, ensure that you can lock the room. A Passport switch can operate from either ac or dc primary power, depending on the conguration you order. Each ac power supply requires its own individually-fused electrical outlet. The electrical outlet must accept a 3-prong plug.
2.1S1
38 Chapter 3 Site preparation
To satisfy safety requirements, you must connect ac grounds from all equipment (including Passport cabinets, termination panel cabinets, and local operator terminal), and external dc grounds to a single distribution panel ground point. You must connect all equipment frames and the external dc power supply returns to this common grounding scheme. You must allow room for other necessary equipment (for example, a local operator terminal, modem, and test equipment). The power supply for each switch must be within 3 m (10 ft) of the electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords. The maximum cable distance from a function processor to your equipment varies for each line type. For more information, see cable assembly information in 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description. External cooling units can be required in equipment rooms that contain a large number of other switches and networking equipment. When you install termination panels, make allowances for all equipment that will eventually be installed in the rack. If cable routing is overhead, install termination panels in the top portion of the rack; if cable routing is from the oor or a wall outlet, install termination panels in the bottom portion of the rack. Ensure that there is sufcient clearance around all equipment for ventilation and physical access.

42 Chapter 3 Site preparation Procedure 1 Marking the oor and preparing anchor holes and cutouts for a Passport cabinet 1 Once the oor plan is complete, mark the oor to show the positions of all cabinets (and associated anchoring holes and cutouts, if required) and other equipment. The gure Passport cabinet footprint on page 43 shows the footprint for a Passport cabinet. If you have a raised oor, drill the anchoring holes and cable cutouts during the site preparation, before installation begins. The Passport cabinet can be anchored for stabilization at two or four of its corners. Anchoring is mandatory for cabinets containing one switch if the switch is in the top of the cabinet. If you have a non-raised oor and are anchoring the cabinets, drill the anchoring holes as part of the installation The anchoring hardware swivels 360 degrees. 3 If you are installing one cabinet only, position the anchoring holes outside the cabinet footprint. If you are installing more than one cabinet, position the anchoring holes inside the cabinet footprint so that space around the cabinets will not be obstructed. 4 5 6 Drill each hole and clean each thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner. Cover the holes with acetate tape to prevent them from being lled with debris. Position cutouts for routing cables under a oor directly beneath the smaller grille at the base of the cabinet cutout. See the gure Floor cutout position and size for under oor cable routing on page 44. Make the cutouts. A cutout 6.4 cm (2.5 in.) by 42 cm (16.6 in.) can accommodate all cables from a cabinet that contains two fully congured switches. Make sure there are no sharp edges on the cutouts that can damage cables.

Site preparation for a seismic cabinet

When you install a seismic cabinet, you can anchor the cabinet for seismic protection using one of the seismic anchoring kits. Or, if you do not require seismic protection, you can anchor the seismic cabinet to stabilize the cabinet and prevent it from tipping over. To prepare your site for installation, check your local building regulations and the technical specications in 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description. In addition, see the following sections: Preparing the oor plan for a seismic cabinet on page 45 Marking the oor and preparing anchor holes and cutouts used to stabilize a seismic cabinet on page 46 Termination panels in a seismic cabinet on page 49
Preparing the oor plan for a seismic cabinet

When preparing the oor plan for a seismic cabinet, note the following: Your oor plan must conform to the required spacing shown in Floor space requirements for a seismic cabinet on page 46. For ac installations, the power cord attachment to each switch must be within 1.5 m (5 ft) of the electrical outlet. Do not use extension cords. For dc installations, the distance from the power cord attachment to each switch must be correct for its wire gauge and voltage drop. See dc power input and wiring regulations in 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description. Position each cabinet to allow you to open both the front and rear doors 90 (20 in. extension). The front and rear doors have a gate swing of 175. Cabinets that contain a single switch mounted in the top half of the cabinet must be anchored to the oor. The cable distance between the switch and the customer equipment must conform to cable specications for the specic function processors in your switch.

Chapter 3 Site preparation 47 Procedure 2 Marking the oor and preparing anchor holes and cutouts for your seismic cabinet 1 After you complete a oor plan, mark the oor to show the positions of all cabinets and other equipment. The gure Seismic cabinet footprint on page 48 shows the footprint for a seismic cabinet. Mark any cutouts for seismic anchoring brackets or stabilization anchors. The stabilization anchor hardware swivels 360 degrees. Therefore, you can place a stabilization anchor anywhere within the 2 3/8 in. (6 cm) radius of a levelling foot. For easy access to the stabilization anchor hardware, position the stabilization anchors outside the cabinet footprint. For multiple cabinet installations, position the anchors inside the cabinet footprint so that the stabilization anchors do not obstruct materials around the cabinets. 3 Mark any cutouts for routing cables under a raised oor. Cutouts for cables must be directly beneath the smaller grille at the base of the cabinet. See the gure Seismic cabinet footprint on page 48. Drill all anchoring holes if you have a raised oor. If you do not have a raised oor, drill all holes during installation. Clean each hole thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner. Cover the holes with acetate tape to prevent them from being lled with debris. Cut out any holes for routing cables under a raised oor. A 5 in. x 14 in. (12 cm x 35 cm) oor cutout can accommodate all cables from a fully congured cabinet. Verify that there are no sharp edges on the cutouts that could damage cables.

Placing a cabinet
Follow this procedure to place a cabinet.
Procedure 9 Placing a cabinet 1 Carefully slide the cabinet into position. Ensure that the front of the cabinet (the door with the power, major and minor LEDs) is positioned as required. For raised oor installations, ensure that the oor cutout is directly beneath the smaller grille at the base of the cabinet. 2 Check that the cabinet is vertically aligned, side-to-side and front-to-rear within 0.25 cm (0.1 in.) of the overall bay height. Use a spirit level or a plumb bob attached to the top of the frame to do this. If the cabinet is not vertically aligned, tilt the cabinet and adjust the levelling feet at the base of the cabinet. Turn the levelling foot clockwise to lower the cabinet and counterclockwise to raise the cabinet.
2.1S1
72 Chapter 6 Placing and anchoring a cabinet
Anchoring a Passport cabinet

To properly stabilize a cabinet, you must anchor at least two diagonal corners of the cabinet. For increased safety, anchor all four corners.
Procedure 10 Anchoring a Passport cabinet 1 If you havent done so during site preparation, drill holes to accommodate the anchors. Use a roto hammer drill and a masonry drill bit to drill the holes. Wear safety goggles when you drill the holes. Clean each hole thoroughly using a vacuum cleaner. If you are not securing the cabinet immediately, cover the holes with tape to prevent them from being lled with debris. For each anchor, tap the anchor into the drilled anchor hole until it is ush with the oor. Insert the threaded rod into the anchor and put the nut on the bolt. Use a socket wrench to fully insert the threaded rod into the anchor. Turn the rod until you are sure the anchor is secure in the hole. Remove the nut and threaded rod from the anchor. Remove the cooling unit from the bottom of the switch. For instructions, see 241-7401-215 Passport 7400 Hardware Maintenance Guide. Remove the large grille in the base of the cabinet (4 nuts) using a wrench. Carefully slide the cabinet into position. Use a spirit level, or a plumb bob attached to the top of the frame, to ensure the cabinet is vertically aligned. Ensure the cabinet is vertically aligned side-to-side and front-to-rear within 0.25 cm (0.1 inch) of the overall height. If necessary, tilt the cabinet and adjust the levelling feet at the base of the cabinet. Turn a levelling foot clockwise to lower the cabinet and counterclockwise to raise the cabinet. 10 Assemble the bolt-down bracket using the upper and lower bolt-down brackets as shown in Passport cabinet anchoring (concrete and raised oors) on page 74. The upper bolt-down bracket is shipped with the cabinet. The lower bolt-down bracket is part of the anchoring kit. Place the 1/4-inch hex-head screw through the holes in the upper and lower bolt-down brackets. Make sure that the head of the screw is on the side of the upper bolt-down bracket.

Setting function processor switches

The V.11 and HSSI function processors have physical switches that you must set. See the following sections: Switches on the V.11 function processor on page 113 Switches on the HSSI function processor on page 115
Switches on the V.11 function processor

When you install a V.11 function processor, you must set the DIP switch on the function processor. Set the DIP switch to on to terminate a line or to off to leave the line unterminated. A terminated line has a load connected to the input. An unterminated line has no load. Nortel ships V.11 function processors with all termination DIP switches set to on. Generally, line rates above 200 kbit/s should be terminated. For more information about when to use an unterminated line, see CCITT V.11 Recommendations, Annex A, section A2.
Procedure 27 Setting the switches on a V.11 function processor 1 If your installation requires a terminated line, set the appropriate DIP switch to the on (down) position. or If your installation requires an unterminated line, set the appropriate DIP switches to the off (up) position. See the gure Location of DIP switches on the V.11 function processor on page 114. 2 Ensure that the position of the DIP switch corresponds to the setting for the LineTerminationRequired attribute. The LineTerminationRequired attribute has no hardware impact. It does not change the setting of the DIP switch. However, the switch raises an alarm if the settings do not match. The default setting for the LineTerminationRequired attribute is yes. For more information, see 241-5701-060 Passport 7400, 15000 Components.

Installing a processor card

Passport switches have minimum processor card and power requirements. To ensure that your installation meets these requirements, see 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description.
CAUTION
Risk of service loss
Two power supplies must be installed before inserting an MSA32 function processor. There is a risk of a shelf reset when installing an MSA32 FP in a shelf with only a single power supply unit. You can install a CP in slot 0 of a 5-slot Passport switch or a 16-slot Passport switch. You can install a spare CP in slot 4 of a 5-slot Passport switch or slot 15 of a 16-slot Passport switch. In a 5-slot Passport switch or a 16-slot Passport switch, slot 0 is the left-most slot.
CAUTION
Whenever you install an FP that uses a control cable, in a sparing conguration, you must always insert the FP into a slot on the shelf before you connect the control cable. If you connect the control cable between the FP and the termination or sparing panel before you insert the FP in the shelf, you can disrupt service to the other FP(s) in the sparing conguration. Before setting up sparing between processor cards, check the product equipment codes (PECs) of the active and spare cards. For control processors, all eight digits of the PECs must match. For function processors, the rst six digits (four letters and two numbers) must match. Note: See 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description for equivalent PECs. Except where noted, processor cards with equivalent PECs can be used as spares for each other.

CAUTION
Inserting or removing a processor card from a Passport shelf can cause noise on the backplane that causes loss of service. Therefore, minimize the time you take to insert or remove a processor card. Do not let a processor card sit in the shelf with a partial connection to the backplane.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock
Passport switches contain high voltages. Processor cards have locking latches so that there is no risk to personnel. The gure Locking and unlocking processor card latches on page 120 shows the location of the locking latches.
1 2 Unlock the latches. See the gure Locking and unlocking processor card latches on page 120. Carefully insert the processor card into the appropriate slot.
WARNING
To meet EMI regulatory requirements and thermal specications, all blank slots must be tted with a blank function processor faceplate.
3 4 5 6 Pull open the top and bottom latches of the processor card. Slide the processor card into the slot until the locking latches begin to close. Close the latches to seat the processor card connectors rmly in the backplane connectors. Apply additional pressure to the faceplate of the processor card to ensure the processor card is fully inserted in the shelf.
241-7401-210 2.1S1
Chapter 9 Installing a processor card 119 7 8 Lock the latches. See the gure Locking and unlocking processor card latches on page 120. Monitor the status of the processor card by observing the status LED as it lights throughout the initialization sequence. The nal color of the LED should be solid green for an active CP. For a spare CP, the nal LED color should be ashing green. It can take several minutes for a new control processor to be synchronized. If you have already provisioned an FP, the nal color of the LED should be green. If you havent provisioned an FP, the nal color of the LED should be amber. If you have installed an invalid FP, the nal color of the LED should be amber. If you are replacing an FP, the switch raises alarms to tell you that the logical processors (LPs) and the FP are enabled. If the LED remains solid red for longer than 30 seconds, see 241-5701-605 Passport 7400, 15000 Operations and Maintenance Guide. 9 If you need to install a termination panel, see the section Installing termination panels on page 121.

Installing 19 termination panels

You can use 19 rack-mounted termination panels with any Passport switch.
Procedure 31 Installing a 19 termination panel 1 2 Make sure that there is no paint on the rear portion of both ends of the termination panel. If you are installing the rst termination panel, connect the grounding lead (supplied separately by Nortel Networks) to the top right securing screw. See the gure Grounding 19 termination panels on page 125. or If you are installing the lowest termination panel in the rack, secure the bottom of the grounding strip and a ground wire to the rack with a screw. 3 4 5 6 7 Use a 5/16-inch socket wrench to secure the termination panel to the frame with the four screws provided. Leave the bottom right screw loose. Insert the grounding strip between the termination panel and the rack. See the gure Grounding 19 termination panels on page 125. Tighten the bottom right screw. Ensure that the bottom notch of the grounding strip allows access to the next screw hole. Secure the grounding lead to one of the frame grounding points. Use a 3/8-inch wrench. If you are installing a subsequent termination panel, ensure that it is grounded to the previous one with a grounding strip. If you are installing 1-unit-high termination panels, you must overlap the grounding strips along the frame of the cabinet before you attach the screw. 8 9 If you are installing termination panels in a seismic cabinet, see the section Termination panels in a seismic cabinet on page 124. Attach the appropriate cables to the termination panel. See the section Installing card cables on page 157.

Chapter 11 Installing a multiport aggregate device

The 32-port E1 AAL function processor (FP) uses a multiport aggregate device to break out the ports of the FP. You can install a multiport aggregate device in a cabinet or standard 19-inch rack.
WARNING
Connect multiport aggregate device interfaces to Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) circuits only. Connections to Telephone Network Voltage (TNV) circuits must be through an external device that provides current protection and isolation, such as an approved Channel Service Unit (CSU). All such devices must meet the equipment safety standards of the country of installation.
WARNING
Before connecting cables or turning on power, ensure that the device is properly grounded. Failure to provide a proper ground may result in electrical shock causing equipment damage or personal injury. For information, see 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description
Procedure 32 Installing a multiport aggregate device 1 Ensure that all cables, including the power cables, are disconnected from the unit. Passport 7400 Hardware Installation Guide 2.1S1
128 Chapter 11 Installing a multiport aggregate device 2 Fasten a bracket to each side of the multiport aggregate device using two of the screws and the at washers provided. See the gure Installing brackets on a balanced multiport aggregate device on page 130 or Installing brackets on an unbalanced multiport aggregate device on page 131. Use a 5/16-inch socket wrench to secure the brackets to the cabinet or rack with four of the screws provided. Allow at least 90 cm (36 in.) clearance in front of the device for operator access. Allow at least 10 cm (4 in.) clearance at the rear of the device for cable connections. 4 Attach the cable management panel to the cabinet or rack between the multiport aggregate device and other equipment using four of the screws provided. For proper cooling, you must also allow at least one vertical unit of space between the multiport aggregate device and other equipment. The cable management panel provides the required space. You can route cables through the panel as appropriate. 5 For dc versions of the device: Connect the dc power cable for each power supply to the output terminals of the disconnect device. Route the power cables into the cabinet or rack through the knockout. Attach wire lugs to the ends of the wires. Each cable contains three wires: a positive wire, a negative wire, and a ground wire. Connect the wire lugs for one of the cables to the terminal block for one of the power supplies (on the rear of the unit); connect the second cable to the other terminal block. Connect the cables from the disconnect device to the power source.
For ac versions of the device: Plug an ac power cable into each power supply plug at the rear of the device. Route the cable out of the rack or cabinet to the power outlet. Do not use extension cords. Plug the power cords into the outlet.
Attach the appropriate cables to the multiport aggregate device. See Installing card cables on page 157 and Installing customer equipment cabling on page 255.
241-7401-210 2.1S1
Chapter 11 Installing a multiport aggregate device 129 8 9 At the rear of the device, turn the power switch beside each power supply outlet on. Verify the state of the following LEDs: The PWR A and B LEDs should be green. The TST LED should be yellow when power is rst turned on during the time in which the device runs a self test. The SIG LED for link A (on the back) should be green if the cabling to the FP or termination panel is installed and the Passport switch is powered. A green LED indicates the device detects the receive signal.
If the FLT LED is red, the device has failed the self test and needs to be replaced. If the SYNC LOSS or AIS LEDs are lit, check the cabling to the device. If necessary, you can run loopback tests to determine whether the problem is with an external device. 10 If you have used this procedure to replace a multiport aggregate device, unlock the affected E1 ports to restore service.

Chapter 12 Installing a sparing panel

You must install a sparing panel in order to use 1:n (one-for-n) sparing. You can install a sparing panel anywhere that you can install a termination panel. There are two categories of sparing panels, single and modular. Single sparing panels are used for 1:1 or 1:n sparing for most types of function processors (FPs). For example, to achieve a 1:4 sparing conguration, one sparing panel with the appropriate number of connectors must be installed. Modular sparing panels are used for 1:1 or 1:n sparing for 32-port multi-service access (MSA32) DS1 or E1 FPs. The installation (and cabling) of an MSA32 sparing panel differs from any other kind. For example, to achieve a 1:4 sparing conguration, four MSA32 sparing panels must be installed. Installing a sparing panel includes considerations for in-service FPs running trafc, a main procedure to initially install a sparing panel, conguring the single or modular panels in software, and additional procedures depending on the type of panel, its connectors, or its position in a 1:n conguration. The considerations and procedures are divided into installing MSA32 modular sparing panels and installing a single (any other) sparing panel. See the section that is appropriate to your category of sparing panel: Installing single sparing panels (page 134) Installing MSA32 modular sparing panels (page 139)
For conguring the software after the installation and cabling, see 241-5701-615 Passport 7400, 15000 FP Conguration Reference 241-5701-605 Passport 7400, 15000 Operations and Maintenance Guide

Installing single sparing panels

Installing single sparing panels requires the following information: Prerequisites for installing single sparing panels (page 134) Adding a sparing panel to an in-service main FP (page 135) Installing a single sparing panel (page 136)
Prerequisites for installing single sparing panels

The available sparing panel types and their product engineering codes (PECs) are listed in 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description, the Appendix for part numbers. The 1:n sparing means there is one sparing panel that enables one spare FP to back up one to six main FPs. For example, a 1:4 conguration requires one sparing panel with the appropriate number of connections to be installed. The sparing panels requires cabling from the main and spare FPs as well as from your network equipment. Other prerequisites include: Power for a sparing panel (page 134) Sparing panels in a seismic cabinet (page 134)
When installing a sparing panel to a main FP that is already in-service and running trafc, see Adding a sparing panel to an in-service main FP (page 135). Power for a sparing panel Power is supplied to one or more sparing panels in a series from any control port connection on the faceplate of an FP. Sparing panels in a seismic cabinet If you install termination panels in the back of a seismic cabinet that contains two 16-slot Passport switches, leave some rack space between the panels for each switch. This space aids airow through the cabinet and provides space for cables.

Chapter 12 Installing a sparing panel 135
Adding a sparing panel to an in-service main FP

When adding a spare FP and a sparing panel to a Passport that has one or more main FPs in service and already running trafc, the trafc is disrupted for a portion of the installation because the FP interface cables must eventually be plugged into the sparing panel. Since loading and initializing the new 1:n conguration requires the nal cabling to be connected, the minimum amount of time a main FP must be out of service is the duration of plugging it into the sparing panel and loading the new software conguration. To minimize the impact and duration of having the main FPs out of service, your task is to integrate the following installation procedures, as required, in a logical ow according to your sites conguration. Observe the following tasks. 1 Install the spare FP into its empty slot and the sparing panel or series of panels onto the rack. If the FP slot is already occupied, you must decide which has priority: the card in that slot or the in-service main FPs. Cable the sparing connections between the panels and the spare FP, including special requirements (for example, MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors). Recongure the shared logical processor for the 1:n conguration. Lock a main FP in software so that trafc in progress is allowed to complete. Subsequent trafc is automatically blocked by the lock. When all trafc has completed on that main FP, cable the connections between the FP and the sparing panel. Unlock that main FP and reset it in software so that the 1:n conguration is reloaded. Continue locking, unlocking, and reloading the main FPs one at a time until all main FPs for the sparing panel or series of panels are in service.

2.1S1
All other procedures in this document for installing and cabling sparing panels are for initial installations before the equipment is initialized in software and put into service.
Installing a single sparing panel

The installation of one or more sparing panels in a series means installing the panels rst, then cabling the FPs and the network equipment to the sparing panels. Ensure that you have installed all of the FPs necessary for your sparing conguration. If you need to install additional FPs, see the section Installing a processor card (page 117). The faceplates of sparing panels other than MSA32 are shown in gures in Card cable connections for specic processor cards (page 167). See the gure of the sparing panel according to the type of FP it connects to. Before installing a sparing panel, ensure that you are familiar with Prerequisites for installing single sparing panels (page 134).
Procedure 33 Installing any sparing panel except for MSA32 1 Ensure that there is no paint on the rear portion of both ends of the sparing panel mounting ears. The bare metal is grounded to the grounding strips on the rack. Position the sparing panel on the rack and align the mounting holes with holes on the rack. Consider how many sparing panels will be mounted on the same face of the rack, frame, or cabinet. Use an 8-mm (5/16-inch) socket wrench to secure the sparing panel to the rack with 4 of the screws provided. Leave the bottom right screw loose if another sparing panel in the same connection series is to be installed.
Note: When installing the top (rst) panel on the rack, connect the grounding wire (supplied separately by Nortel Networks) to the top right securing screw. See the gure Grounding sparing panels on page 138.
If you are installing the lowest panel on the rack, secure the bottom of the grounding strip and a grounding wire to the rack with a screw. 4 Secure a cable management bracket to each side of the sparing panel with four of the screws provided. See the gure Grounding sparing panels on page 138.
241-7401-210 2.1S1

Installing MSA32 modular sparing panels

Installing MSA32 sparing panels is different from other types of sparing panels because they are installed, cabled, and operated as modules. MSA32 sparing panels are modular because one panel is required for every n in 1:n. Installing MSA32 modular sparing panels requires the following information: Prerequisites for installing MSA32 modular sparing panels (page 139) Adding MSA32 sparing panels to an in-service main FP (page 141) Installing MSA32 sparing panels except for multiple RJ45s (page 141) Changing fasteners on a BNC or DB15 sparing panel (page 146) Installing and cabling multiple MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels (page 149) Prerequisites for installing MSA32 modular sparing panels (page 139) Cabling one MSA32 BNC, DB15, or RJ45 sparing panel (page 222) Cabling two or more MSA32 BNC or DB15 sparing panels (page 238)
Prerequisites for installing MSA32 modular sparing panels

The product engineering codes (PECs) of the MSA32 sparing panels are: NTY196xx with BNC connectors (E1 only) NTY197xx with 1-port DB15 connectors NTY195xx with 2-port DB15 connectors NTJS95xx with RJ45 connectors
Either DS1 or E1 FPs operate with any of the sparing panels. The 1:n sparing means there can be up to six sparing panels of the same type connected in a series. For example, a 1:4 conguration requires four sparing panels. The panels must be installed from top to bottom on the same face of the rack, cabinet, or frame. The panels require inter-panel cabling, and cabling from the bottom panel to the FP and to your network equipment. The panels with BNC and DB15 connectors are installed rst, then cabled. The panels with RJ45 connectors must be installed and cabled one at a time. One RJ45 panel is cabled differently than one BNC or DB15 panel. Unlike
2.1S1
other Passport sparing panels, the MSA32 panels also require additional installation activities depending on the type of panel, its connectors, or its position in a 1:n conguration. Other prerequisites in this section include: Power for an MSA32 sparing panel (page 140) Software designation of MSA32 sparing panels (page 140) Initialization of MSA32 sparing panels (page 140) Using an MSA32 sparing panel as a termination panel (page 141)
Power for an MSA32 sparing panel Power is supplied to an MSA32 sparing panel from its FP only through the connections labelled P3 at both ends. For the sparing panel to operate, the D-sub connectors at P3 must be cabled. Software designation of MSA32 sparing panels Once installed sparing panels are initialized in software, they are automatically assigned a software designation which identies the position of the sparing panel in its series of inter-connected panels. The single or the bottom sparing panel that connects to the FP and the network equipment is always designated Main A. The next sparing panel connected to it, usually above it on the same rack, is designated Main B. The designations occur in sequence from Main A to Main F for up to six panels. The sparing panel for a 1:1 conguration is always designated Main A. When conguring the MSA32 sparing panels in software, a 1:1 conguration must be handled as a 1:n conguration where n happens to be 1. With other sparing panels, conguring a 1:1 setup is different than conguring a 1:n. Initialization of MSA32 sparing panels When an MSA32 sparing panel is installed, it must be initialized by software so that it can operate appropriately. Initialization starts when at least one connection between an FP and the sparing panel is completed. The connection provides power to the sparing panel, thereby enabling the initialization to start. For MSA32, the only connection that provides power and initialization is P3. The main FPs must always be cabled to the sparing panel before the spare FP.
241-7401-210 2.1S1
Using an MSA32 sparing panel as a termination panel You can use a single MSA32 sparing panel as a termination panel without sparing. Connect the D-subs on the faceplate of the MSA32 FP to the same Pn connectors (where n is 0 to 3) on the faceplate of the sparing panel. The P3 power connection also enables the hardware initialization for a termination panel. There is no software initialization for a non-sparing termination panel. Then connect the network equipment to the sparing panel. Congure the sparing panel in software the same as you would a termination panel.
Adding MSA32 sparing panels to an in-service main FP

The addition of one or more MSA32 sparing panels to an in-service main FP is the same as any other type or category of sparing panel. See Adding a sparing panel to an in-service main FP (page 135).
Installing MSA32 sparing panels except for multiple RJ45s

The installation of one or more MSA32 sparing panels in a series means installing the panels rst, then cabling the FPs and the network equipment to the sparing panels. Ensure that you have installed all of the FPs necessary for your sparing conguration. If you need to install additional FPs, see the section Installing a processor card (page 117). The installation of multiple MSA32 sparing panel with RJ45 connectors is different because each panel in a 1:n series must be cabled after it is installed and before installing the next panel in the series. The installation procedure for MSA32 RJ45 panels is in Installing and cabling multiple MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels (page 149). Before installing a sparing panel, ensure that you are familiar with Prerequisites for installing MSA32 modular sparing panels (page 139).
Procedure 34 Installing one RJ45 sparing panel or multiple BNC or DB15 panels 1 Ensure that there is no paint on the rear portion of both ends of the sparing panel mounting ears. The bare metal is grounded to the grounding strips on the rack. Position the sparing panel on the rack and align the mounting holes with holes on the rack. Consider how many sparing panels will be connected

Leave the bottom right screw loose if another sparing panel in the same connection series is to be installed.
Note: If you are installing the rst panel on the rack, connect the grounding wire (supplied separately by Nortel Networks) to the top right securing screw. See the gure Grounding sparing panels on page 138.
If you are installing the lowest panel on the rack, secure the bottom of the grounding strip and a grounding wire to the rack with a screw. 4 Secure a cable management bracket to each side of the sparing panel with four of the screws provided. See the gure Grounding sparing panels on page 138. The cable management brackets allow you to neatly route cables from the front of the sparing panel to the rear of the switch. 5 6 7 8 Insert the grounding strip between the sparing panel and the rack. See the gure Grounding sparing panels on page 138. Tighten the bottom right screw. Ensure that the bottom notch of the grounding strip allows access to the next screw hole. Secure the grounding lead to one of the frame grounding points using a 10-mm (3/8-inch) screw. If you are installing a subsequent sparing or termination panel, ensure that a. b. c. 9 it has the same product engineering code (PEC) as the other sparing or termination panel it is grounded to the previous panel with a grounding strip the mounting-ear holes of the sparing panels are evenly mounted and the ears are ush against the rack
When one or more MSA32 sparing panels with BNC or DB15 connectors are installed, on the Main A (bottom) panel you must change the pairs of D-sub stud fasteners for the sparing connectors to the D-sub hex screw fasteners. See Changing fasteners on a BNC or DB15 sparing panel (page 146). When one MSA32 sparing panel with RJ45 connectors is installed, you must change the D-sub stud fasteners for the sparing connectors to the D-sub hex screw fasteners on the underside of the panel.

Cabling MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors is addressed during the installation of the panels.
Changing fasteners on a BNC or DB15 sparing panel

When using one or more DS1 or E1 MSA32 sparing panels with BNC or DB15 connectors in a series of one to six panels, you must change the pairs of D-sub fasteners on the panel designated Main A. Typically, the bottom panel in a 1:n conguration series of interconnected panels interfaces with the spare FP and is designated in software as the Main A sparing panel. A single panel in a 1:1 sparing conguration is the Main A. The stud fasteners for the Main A sparing connectors must be changed to D-sub hex screw fasteners to accommodate connecting the FP interface cables. The fasteners are included in the installation kit. Changing the D-sub fasteners depends on one of the following procedures being done or started rst: Installing MSA32 sparing panels except for multiple RJ45s (page 141) Installing and cabling multiple MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels (page 149)
Procedure 35 Changing the D-sub fasteners on the Main A MSA32 sparing panel 1 Locate the sparing panel that is to be connected to the spare MSA32 FP, that is, the bottom panel in the 1:n series or the only panel in a 1:1 conguration. The single or bottom panel is the Main A panel. Ensure that the Main A is mounted onto the cabinet, frame, or rack and it remains uncabled. Locate the sparing connectors that are to have their D-sub fasteners changed. The sparing connectors are identied by the letters A, B, C, and D in the gures Location of MSA32 connectors to have screws changed on a 1:1 conguration (page 147) and Location of MSA32 connectors to have screws changed on the bottom 1:n sparing panel (page 148).

Put the fasteners aside as spares. To distinguish the stud from hex fasteners, refer to the gure MSA32 sparing panel cable connector screws (page 149). Where each stud fastener was removed, add an 11/64-inch (4.4-mm) hex fastener from the installation kit. Tighten each hex fastener to snug (no extra turns) until the bottom of the hex shank is ush against the face of the panel. Return to the procedure that sent you to this one.

Installing and cabling multiple MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels

When using two or more MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (NTJS95xx) for a 1:n sparing conguration other than 1:1, space is required between the panels to accommodate inter-panel exi-cables without pinching or crimping them. Since the exi-cables are connected to the bottom of each
2.1S1
sparing panel down to the Main A (bottom) one, you must install the interpanel exi-cables immediately after each panel is installed and before the next one in the series is installed. An MSA32 inter-panel connection cable is a exi-cable, a ribbon cable that is equivalent to a exible printed circuit board (PCB). The exi-cables for MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels are different than other MSA32 panels by having a third D-sub connector. See the gure Inter-panel exi-cable for MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 151). The product engineering code (PEC) for the exi-cables are: for RJ45, NTJS99xx for DB15 or BNC, NT199xx
As soon as the P3 interface cable between the spare FP and the sparing panel is connected at both ends, power is provided to that sparing panel and the software starts to initialize the entire sparing panel conguration. The Main FP interface cables must be connected before the spare FP cables, as identied in the installation and cabling procedure. This ensures that initialization occurs properly. Before Installing and cabling multiple MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels, ensure that you are familiar with Prerequisites for installing MSA32 modular sparing panels (page 139).

Before installing and cabling multiple MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels, ensure that you are familiar with Prerequisites for installing MSA32 modular sparing panels (page 139) and Prerequisites for cabling MSA32 sparing panels (page 221).
Procedure 36 Installing and cabling two or more MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels 1 Install the top MSA32 RJ45 sparing panel according to the procedure Installing one RJ45 sparing panel or multiple BNC or DB15 panels (page 141). Omit step 9 in that procedure. On each inter-panel exi-cable (identied by PEC NTJS99xx), ensure that the D-sub sliding latches on each end are in the disengaged position. If a latch is engaged, the cable connector cannot be fastened to the panel connector. See the gure Inter-panel exi-cable for MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 151). Holding the end of the exi-cable that has one D-sub connector (not two), at the underside of the panel align the cable D-sub connector with the panel D-sub connector at one side of the panel. See the inset of the gure Cable connections of MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 155). CPE refers to your network equipment. Plug in the cable connector to the panel connector and fasten them by sliding the latch along the long axis of the connector. The latch engages both connector studs in one motion. Allow the cable to hang freely. Connect the remaining 3 exi-cable connectors on the bottom of the sparing panel by repeating step 3 to step 4. For easiest access, connect them one after the other in a row beside the one that is already connected. Install the next RJ45 sparing panel the same as the previous one. Below each sparing panel, leave a vertical space equal to the height of the panel faceplate. The space accommodates cables without pinching or crimping them after installation. Allow the exi-cables from the panel above to be pushed back by this panel. Take one of the exi-cables hanging at the underside of the above panel and route it past the rear of the sparing panel to the underside of the panel that was last installed. See the inset in the gure Cable connections of MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 155). Align and plug in the middle D-sub cable connector with the lower panel connector that is in the same position. Always vertically align the connections so that the inter-panel cable connections occur in the same positions from panel to panel. See the front view of the panels in the gure

Chapter 12 Installing a sparing panel 153 Cable connections of MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 155). 9 Fasten the sliding latch of the cable connector.
10 Align and plug in the third D-sub cable connector over the pair of posts of the remaining D-sub connector on the underside of the sparing panel. See the gure Bottom exi-cable connections of MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 156). 11 Fasten the D-subs by xing a capped stud fastener at each post. The hex shank is 11/64-inch (4.4-mm). Stop when the screws are snug and the outside lip of the cable connector almost touches the at surface. Avoid stripping a screw or the post hole. 12 Holding the end of another exi-cable that has one D-sub connector (not two), align and plug the D-sub into the third D-sub connector on the underside of the sparing panel. Allow the cable to hang freely. 13 Repeat step 6 to step 12 for the remaining 3 exi-cables. 14 For each remaining sparing panel in the 1:n series up to but not including the Main A (bottom) panel, repeat step 6 to step 13 continuing downwards. 15 Install the last (bottom) RJ45 sparing panel the same as the previous one. Below the panel, leave a vertical space equal to the height of 3 panel faceplates. Allow the exi-cables from the panel above to be pushed back by this panel. 16 Connect and fasten the hanging exi-cable D-subs from the sparing panel above the Main A into the underside of Main A. Fasten each D-sub as before except for each third D-sub connector, fasten them to the posts using the hex fasteners (not the stud fasteners). 17 Connect and fasten both ends of all FP interface cables one at a time to the Main FPs and to the matching Main connectors on the sparing panel faceplate. Use the gure Cable connections of MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 155) to identify which FP Pn connector mates with which panel faceplate Pn connector. As each cable is plugged in, fasten its D-sub with a small at-blade screwdriver. Stop when the screws are snug and the outside lip of the cable connector almost touches the at surface. Avoid stripping a screw or a screw hole.
Note: For power and control to be enabled and the sparing panel conguration to be initialized by the software, the P3 connectors on the FPs must connect with the P3 connectors on the sparing panels.

Installing card cables

You can use the same general procedure to install all card cables. The cable connections for each processor are different. See Card cable connections for specic processor cards on page 167.
CAUTION
Make sure the cable pins are not shorted together or to any metal surface. When connected to an on-line Passport shelf assembly, these cables can carry power signals (+12 Vdc) that are used to supply power to the termination panel.
Procedure 41 General procedure for installing card cables 1 Connect the card cable to the termination panel and tighten the screws. Connect the straight connector-housing end of the cable to the termination panel. The angled connector-housing end connects to the processor card.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging equipment, always connect the cable to the termination panel before you connect it to the function processor.
2 If the function processor (FP) requires a control cable, connect the control cable to the termination panel and tighten the screws. You must connect at least one control cable between the FPs in the sparing conguration and the termination or sparing panel. Otherwise, the panel does not switch processors when an FP fails.
Note: Any of the FPs in a sparing conguration can power and control the termination or sparing panel to which they are attached. However, the active FP always supplies power to the termination or sparing panel.
3 Route the cables to the function processor.
241-7401-210 2.1S1
Chapter 13 Installing card cables 167 4 Connect the cables to the processor card and tighten the screws. For more information see Card cable connections for specic processor cards on page 167. Label the cable ends at the FP. Labels should include: cabinet identier, shelf identier, slot number, connector identier, function (main or spare) if appropriate, and service type. Label cable ends at the termination panel for future reference. Labels should include termination panel rack identier, termination panel type, termination panel identier, connector identier, connector function (main or spare) if appropriate, and service type. Make a list of cable connections and their corresponding connections at termination panels.

Sparing requires all ports on the spare FP be connected to the termination panel sparing connectors, whether they are provisioned or not. Failure to do so will result in the termination panel dropping all ports on the spare FP. Before setting up sparing, check the product equipment codes (PECs) on the faceplates of both the active and spare FPs. The rst six digits (four letters and two numbers) of the PECs must match. Note: See 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description for equivalent PECs. Except where noted, processor cards with equivalent PECs can be used as spares for each other.

DS1 or E1 MSA32 function processor

The DS1 or E1 MSA32 FP has three types of termination panel determined by their type of connector, DB15, RJ45, and E1 also has unbalanced BNC. These termination panels support 1:N sparing for up to six panels, and are referred to as sparing panels. This section includes the information to cable from the FPs to the sparing panels. Start at Prerequisites for cabling MSA32 sparing panels (page 221). The table Mapping between a DS1 or E1 AAL1 FP and sparing panel connectors (page 220) summarizes the sparing panel to FP cable connections by faceplate labels.

241-7401-210 2.1S1
Prerequisites for cabling MSA32 sparing panels

The prerequisites of cabling one or more sparing panels includes having the appropriate cable for: interfacing between the sparing panel and its function processors (FPs), both the mains and the spare inter-panel connections in a 1:n sparing conguration that is not 1:1 for MSA32 interfacing between the sparing panel and customer premises equipment (CPE)
The FP interface and inter-panel cables are manufactured by Nortel Networks in xed lengths with the appropriate connectors. The available MSA32 FP interface cables are listed in the table PECs of the MSA32 interface cables from FP to sparing panel (page 221). Each MSA32 FP interface cable includes an integrated control port cable.
Table 19 PECs of the MSA32 interface cables from FP to sparing panel PEC NTPS01 NTPS02 NTPS03 NTPS04 Type of FP E1 E1 DS1 DS1 Length 3 m (9.8 feet) 15 m (49.2 feet) 3 m (9.8 feet) 15 m (49.2 feet)
An MSA32 inter-panel connection cable is a exi-cable, a ribbon cable that is equivalent to a exible printed circuit board (PCB). The exi-cables for MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels are different than other MSA32 panels by having a third D-sub connector. See the gure Inter-panel exi-cable for MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors (page 151). The product engineering code (PEC) for the exi-cables are: for RJ45, NTJS99xx
2.1S1
for DB15 or BNC, NT199xx
Cabling one or more sparing panels depends on the type and quantity of panel. Follow the procedure that is appropriate to your setup: Cabling one MSA32 BNC, DB15, or RJ45 sparing panel (page 222) Cabling two or more MSA32 BNC or DB15 sparing panels (page 238)
Cabling multiple MSA32 sparing panels with RJ45 connectors is included in the sparing panel installation procedure Installing and cabling multiple MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels (page 149).
Cabling one MSA32 BNC, DB15, or RJ45 sparing panel

After the single sparing panel is mounted according to the procedure in Installing MSA32 sparing panels except for multiple RJ45s (page 141), the sparing panel must be connected to the main and spare function processors (FPs) and then to the customer premises equipment (CPE). When one sparing panel is installed for 1:1 sparing, there is only one main FP and one spare FP. When one MSA32 sparing panel with RJ45 connectors (NTJS95xx) has been installed for a 1:1 sparing conguration, the cabling differs from installing other single MSA32 sparing panels. The connection to the spare FP is from the D-sub connectors on the underside of the panel instead of its faceplate. Before cabling a sparing panel, ensure that you are familiar with Prerequisites for cabling MSA32 sparing panels (page 221).
Procedure 42 Cabling one sparing panel for a 1:1 conguration 1 2 Locate the sparing panel to be cabled. For an MSA32 sparing panel, ensure that the D-sub stud fasteners on the sparing connections are replaced with the D-sub hex fasteners according to the procedure Changing fasteners on a BNC or DB15 sparing panel (page 146). While holding an FP interface cable at either end, align and plug in a D-sub connector to a Main A connector on the front of the sparing panel. Repeat for each Main A connector. Allow the cables to hang freely. See the appropriate gure for the cable connections:
241-7401-210 2.1S1
Chapter 13 Installing card cables 223 4 FP and CPE connections for E1 MSA32 unbalanced BNC (page 231) FP and CPE connections for DS1 or E1 MSA32 1-port/DB15 (page 225) FP and CPE connections for DS1 or E1 MSA32 2-port/DB15 (page 227) FP and CPE connections for DS1 or E1 MSA32 RJ45 (page 229)
Using a small at-blade screwdriver, fasten the D-sub connectors together. Stop when the screws are snug and the lip of the fastener almost touches the at surface. Avoid stripping a screw or a screw hole. Route the other end of each interface cable to the faceplate of the Main FPs through the cable management brackets above the Passport. See the appropriate method in Routing card cables to termination panels (page 157). Avoid criss-crossing or entangling the cables. Align and plug in each D-sub connector of the cable to the connector with the same Pn label on the faceplate of the FPs. Fasten the D-sub connectors. While holding another FP interface cable, align and plug in a D-sub connector to a Spare connector on the front of the sparing panel. Repeat for each Spare connector. Allow the cables to hang freely.
Note: For MSA32 RJ45 sparing panels (NTJS95xx), the sparing connections are on the underside of the panel instead of the faceplate.
CAUTION
Risk of impaired service
Completing the P3 connection between an FP and an MSA32 sparing panel provides power to that sparing panel, and starts the software initialization of the 1:N conguration. To ensure proper initialization, the P3 sparing connection must be completed after all of the P3 main connections. When any P3 connection is completed at both ends, the LED on the faceplate of the sparing panel shows solid green to conrm powerup and that initialization has started.

Cabling two or more MSA32 BNC or DB15 sparing panels

Cabling two or more MSA32 BNC or DB15 sparing panels for a 1:N sparing conguration is similar to cabling one sparing panel except for the addition of the inter-panel exi-cables. (The cabling procedure for two or more RJ45s is included in the installation procedure.) When a series of panels are installed for 1:N sparing, there are n main FPs per spare FP. The product engineering code (PEC) of the exi-cables is NTY199xx. The available MSA32 FP interface cables are listed in the table PECs of the MSA32 interface cables from FP to sparing panel (page 221). Each MSA32 FP interface cable includes an integrated control port cable, but only the P3 connection uses it. Cable the MSA32 sparing panels after the panels are installed. To install sparing panels, see Installing MSA32 sparing panels except for multiple RJ45s (page 141). The logical cabling method is from top to bottom in this sequence: 1 2 3 4 inter-panel exi-cables Main FP cables to the sparing panel Spare FP cables to the sparing panel customer premises equipment (CPE) cables to the sparing panel
Before cabling a sparing panel, ensure that you are familiar with Prerequisites for cabling MSA32 sparing panels (page 221).
Procedure 43 Cabling multiple MSA32 BNC or DB15 sparing panel for 1:N 1 On the Main A (bottom) sparing panel, ensure that the D-sub fasteners on the sparing connections are the D-sub hex fasteners. Otherwise, replace the stud fasteners with hex fasteners according to the procedure Changing fasteners on a BNC or DB15 sparing panel (page 146). Locate the top sparing panel in the 1:N conguration. From the top panel to the bottom, observe the location of the inter-panel connectors in the gure Location of MSA32 inter-panel exi-cable connectors for BNC and DB15 (page 241). For example, the OBP0 connector on the bottom row of the top panel connects to the IBP0 connector of the panel below it. Align and plug in the D-sub connectors of

Chapter 13 Installing card cables 239 all the inter-panel exi-cables into the faceplate of the BNC or DB15 sparing panels so that each OBPn connects to each corresponding IBPn below it. Omit connecting exi-cables to the bottom row of connectors on the Main A (bottom) panel. 4 As each exi-cable is plugged in, fasten the connectors together by sliding the latch along the long axis of the connector. The latch engages both connector studs in one motion. While holding an FP interface cable at either end, align, plug in, and fasten a D-sub connector to the Main P0 connector on the front of the top Main sparing panel. Fasten the D-sub connectors together using a at-blade screwdriver. Stop when the screws are snug and the lip of the cable connector almost touches the at surface. Avoid stripping a screw or a screw hole. See the appropriate gure for the Main cable connections: 6 FP and CPE connections for E1 MSA32 unbalanced BNC (page 231) FP and CPE connections for DS1 or E1 MSA32 1-port/DB15 (page 225) FP and CPE connections for DS1 or E1 MSA32 2-port/DB15 (page 227)
Route the other end of each FP interface cable to the faceplate of the Main MSA32 FPs through the cable management brackets above the Passport. See the appropriate method in Routing card cables to termination panels (page 157). Avoid criss-crossing or entangling the cables. Align, plug in, and fasten each interface cable to the Main FPs. Match the Pn on the sparing panel with the Pn on the FP. For each sparing panel below the top one, cable all of the Main FPs by repeating step 5 to step 7. While holding another FP interface cable, align and plug in a D-sub connector to a Spare connector on the front of the Main A sparing panel. Repeat for each Spare connector. Allow the cables to hang freely.

CAUTION
Risk of impaired service
Completing the P3 connection between an FP and an MSA32 sparing panel provides power to that sparing panel, and starts the software initialization of the 1:N conguration. To ensure proper initialization, the P3 sparing connection must be completed after all of the P3 main connections. When any P3 connection is completed at both ends, the LED on the faceplate of the sparing panel shows solid green to conrm powerup and that initialization has started.
10 Route the other end of each interface cable to the faceplate of the Spare MSA32 FP through the cable management brackets. Align and plug in each D-sub connector of the cable to the connector with the same Pn label on the faceplate of the MSA32 FPs. Connect P3 last. Fasten the D-sub connectors. 11 Connect the CPE cables to the sparing panel according to the appropriate gure: FP and CPE connections for E1 MSA32 unbalanced BNC (page 231) FP and CPE connections for DS1 or E1 MSA32 1-port/DB15 (page 225) FP and CPE connections for DS1 or E1 MSA32 2-port/DB15 (page 227)
Route each cable through the cable management brackets before connecting it to the sparing panel faceplate. 12 Label the FP cable connections with the cabinet identier, shelf identier, slot number, connector identier, whether the FP is Main or Spare, and the service type. 13 Label the sparing panel connections with the rack identier, panel type and identier, panel connector identier, whether the connector is Main or Spare, shelf identier, connector identier, and the service type. 14 Record each connection from the FPs to the sparing panel to the CPE. 15 Secure all cables with tie wraps, as appropriate. Ensure that no cable is crimped or pinched.

Chapter 14 Installing customer equipment cabling

Customer equipment cabling connects customer equipment to a Passport switch. You can connect customer cables to a termination panel or to the faceplate of a function processor (FP). Use these procedures to install customer equipment cabling: Making customer equipment cables on page 255 Customer equipment cabling for FPs on page 258. The pages following this procedure contain cabling information for specic processor cards.
WARNING
Connect Passport interfaces to Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV) circuits only. Connections to Telephone Network Voltage (TNV) circuits must be through an external device that provides current protection and isolation, such as an approved Channel Service Unit (CSU). All such devices must meet the equipment safety standards of the country of installation.
Making customer equipment cables

Follow this general procedure to make customer equipment cables. For general cable specications, assembly parts, and pinouts, see 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description.
2.1S1
256 Chapter 14 Installing customer equipment cabling Procedure 44 Making customer equipment cables 1 2 Use the cable parts that you ordered for your installation to assemble the cables that connect customer equipment to a Passport switch. Ground the cables according to site practices, with the following considerations: To avoid EMI problems, terminate shield grounds on equipment at the Passport end as well as the customer end. This assumes the Passport equipment and the customer equipment are properly grounded to avoid any ground loop problems. If necessary, to avoid ground loops, you can terminate the shield ground at one end only.
Test end-to-end connections with an ohmmeter set to the lowest resistance range. Ensure that each connection is correct. Also ensure that the connector pins are not shorted together or to the connector shield.
If you are making a shielded cable, see Making a braided shield on page 256.
Making a braided shield

If you are making a shielded cable, you need to make a braided shield.
CAUTION
Risk of compromise to EMI rating
The shielded cables that you assemble must have a braided shield. See the gure, Braided shield for shielded cables on page 257. Failure to properly construct interface cable assemblies can compromise the EMI rating and affect the product compliances.

CAUTION
Ensure the cable pins of cables attached to the port connector are not shorted together or to any metal surface. Do not bend the pins when you attach the cable to the connector. Use this procedure to connect customer equipment cables to an FP.
Procedure 45 Installing customer equipment cables
CAUTION
Do not directly connect Passport switches to cables exposed to outdoor hazards (such as lightning) as dened by BS6701: Part I, 1986 Installation of apparatus intended for connection to certain telecommunications systems. Such cables include external overhead cables that extend more than four spans (used in the U.K. for connecting telecommunications systems).
1 2 Attach one end of each cable to the termination panel (or faceplate of the FP), and the other end to the customer equipment. Label the cables. Include the following information: rack or cabinet identier, connection type, connector function (main or spare), termination panel or FP identier, connector identier, and service type. Make a list of cable connections and their corresponding connections at termination panels (or FP faceplates).

Installing ac power cords

Before you install ac power cords, make sure you have met the appropriate power requirements. For information, see 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description.
Procedure 46 Installing ac power cords 1 2 3 4 At the power distribution panel, turn off the circuit breakers for the outlets that supply power to the switch. Ensure that these outlets are void of primary power. Unpack the power cord(s). Insert the power cord connector into the appropriate power connector on the power input panel on the rear of the switch. See Installing 5-slot Passport switch ac power cords on page 311, or Installing 16-slot Passport switch ac power cords on page 312. Each ac power supply requires its own power cord. Do not use extension cords. The 16-slot Passport switch has three power connectors on the power input panel, one for each possible power supply. If your switch contains fewer than three power supplies, ensure that you install the power cord into each power supplys corresponding power connector. 5 6 Run the cord into the cable guide. If your switch is in a cabinet, you can route the cable through the oor or ceiling, with other cables. Remove the smaller grill cutout in either the top or the bottom of the cabinet with a 3/8-in. box wrench. Route the cord out of the cabinet through the appropriate cutout. or If your switch is in a standard 19-in. rack, route the cord out of the rack. 7 8 Run the cord to the power outlet. Repeat steps 4 to 7 for each power cord.

Installing external alarms

You can install external alarms to notify you when a 5-slot Passport switch or a 16-slot Passport switch generates an alarm. The 5-slot Passport switch and the 16-slot Passport switch provide dry relay contacts that close when the switch generates an alarm. The external alarm cable connects to the cabinet via a D-type, 15-pin connector, labelled Alarm 1 or ALM 1. There are three sets of major alarm contacts and three sets of minor alarm contacts. You can use each set to generate alarms at a different location. The gure Example of a major alarm connection on page 332 shows an external alarms system that lights a bulb when the shelf generates a major alarm.
241-7401-210 2.1S1
Relays remain open until an alarm causes them to close. Each set of contacts is rated at 72 V DC, 1 A DC. Your alarm system must provide the power for the alarm system. See 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description for the connector pinouts. You do not have to connect the external alarm cabling. If you do connect the alarm cable, the procedure is the same for the 5-slot and 16-slot models.
Procedure 53 Installing external alarms 1 Make the following major alarm connections: pin 1 and pin 9 to a major alarm system at location 1 pin 2 and pin 10 to a major alarm system at location 2 pin 3 and pin 11 to a major alarm system at location 3
See 16-slot Passport switch alarm connectors on page 326 for the location of the external alarm connector on a 16-slot Passport switch. See 5-slot Passport switch alarm connector and cutoff switch on page 334 for the location of the external alarm connector on a 5-slot Passport switch. 2 Make the following minor alarm connections: pin 5 and pin 13 to a minor alarm system at location 1 pin 6 and pin 14 to a minor alarm system at location 2 pin 7 and pin 15 to a minor alarm system at location 3
You can insert a switch between the alarm cable and your alarm system to allow you to isolate your alarm system from the Passport 7400 alarm circuit (relay contacts) during repairs. Remember to set the switch to the ON position after any repair. 3 4 If you use long cables, ensure that your alarm system is not impeded by cable resistance. To connect the same external alarm to two 16-slot Passport switches, connect the shelf interconnect cable between the Alarm 2 connectors on the back of each shelf. See the gure 16-slot Passport switch alarm connectors on page 326.

Chapter 19 Connecting a local operator terminal to a Passport switch

After you install all of the necessary hardware, you must connect a local operator terminal to your Passport switch. A local operator terminal enables you to provision your switch. You can connect any VT100 terminal or device that emulates a VT100 terminal to a Passport switch. If your Passport switch uses a CP, you can connect your local operator terminal to the V.24 DCE port (port 1) on the faceplate of the CP. The V.24 DCE port is permanently set at 9600 bit/s, 1 stop bit, no parity. Make sure your local operator terminal settings match these settings. You must use a 9 pin D type interface cable to properly connect your terminal to the V.24 DCE port. For information about the pinouts for the V.24 connector, see 241-7401-200 Passport 7400 Hardware Description. If you want to print any alarms that appear on-screen, connect the local terminal to a printer before you connect the terminal to your Passport switch.
Procedure 60 Connecting a local operator terminal to a Passport switch 1 2 3 Route the V.24 terminal cable from your terminal to your Passport switch with enough length to reach the faceplate of the control processor. If you plan to keep the cable permanently attached, you can run the cable through the cable management assembly. Label the cable for future reference.
2.1S1
350 Chapter 19 Connecting a local operator terminal to a Passport switch 4 Connect the terminal cable to the control processor V.24 DCE port (port 1). See the gure Local operator ports on a 5-slot Passport switch on page 351. Secure the cable connector to the control processor port by screwing in the attaching screws. Use a 6 mm (1/4 inch) slot screwdriver to do this. You can now provision your Passport switch. If you plan to connect to a network management system, you need to access Passport StartUp software. See 241-5701-270 Passport 7400, 15000 Software Installation Guide. StartUp software enables you to connect your Passport to the rest of your network.
